At Vie Aesthetics, we understand the impact that thread veins can have on your self-esteem. Whether you’re dealing with veins on your face or legs, our vein removal treatments offer a solution that is effective, safe, and minimally invasive. Our goal is to help you restore smooth, clear skin with treatments tailored to your specific needs.
Thread veins, or spider veins, are small, visible blood vessels that appear on the surface of the skin. They are often red, blue, or purple and can form anywhere on the body. While harmless, they can be unsightly and a cause for concern for many people.
We offer two advanced vein removal treatments: O.F.F. Thread Vein Removal and Microsclerotherapy. Each treatment is suitable for different types of thread veins, and we’ll help you choose the right one based on your skin type and specific concerns.
O.F.F. (Oxygen-Feather) thread vein removal uses a specialised light technology to target and treat thread veins. The light is absorbed by the blood vessels, causing them to break down. The body then naturally eliminates the treated veins over time. The procedure involves no needles, just the application of a gentle light over the affected areas.
The treatment is virtually pain-free. Some patients report feeling a mild, warming sensation during the procedure, but it is generally well tolerated. There is no need for anaesthesia or numbing agents, making it a comfortable experience for most people.
The O.F.F. thread vein removal treatment is ideal for smaller veins on the face and sensitive areas. It is commonly used for:
Microsclerotherapy involves injecting a special sclerosing solution directly into the affected vein using a fine needle. This solution irritates the vein, causing it to collapse and be absorbed by the body over time. The veins are then gradually reabsorbed, leading to a smoother, more even skin tone.
Microsclerotherapy may cause a mild stinging or burning sensation when the solution is injected into the veins. However, the discomfort is usually brief and well-tolerated by most patients. Some patients may experience slight cramping or pressure in the treated area post-treatment, but this typically resolves within a few minutes.
Microsclerotherapy is best suited for:
At your consultation, we’ll begin by assessing the areas affected by thread veins. We’ll discuss your concerns and goals before recommending the best treatment option. Both O.F.F. and microsclerotherapy are quick treatments, typically lasting 20-30 minutes depending on the size and number of veins treated.
For microsclerotherapy, the treatment involves a series of small injections, while the O.F.F. treatment uses targeted light energy. Both treatments are minimally invasive, with no need for anaesthesia.

Results can vary depending on the treatment and the size of the veins being treated. For O.F.F. thread vein removal, you may see improvements in 2-3 weeks as the veins gradually fade. For microsclerotherapy, the full effects can take up to 12 weeks to appear as the treated veins are reabsorbed by the body.
Most patients see significant improvements after one treatment, but some may require additional sessions depending on the extent of their thread veins. Your practitioner will discuss a personalised treatment plan during your consultation.
Yes, vein removal treatments are safe when performed by qualified professionals. At Vie Aesthetics, we use the latest technology and techniques to ensure your safety and comfort throughout the procedure.
Scarring is rare with both O.F.F. thread vein removal and microsclerotherapy. The treatments are designed to target only the veins without affecting the surrounding skin, leaving minimal to no scarring.
Yes, both treatments are suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin. However, we always recommend a consultation to assess your specific skin concerns and determine the best treatment for you.
Once treated, the veins will not return. However, new thread veins can develop due to factors such as ageing or hormonal changes. If this happens, touch-up treatments can be performed to keep your skin looking smooth and clear.
We also offer interest free finance on treatments above £280 and on selected packages.
